This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project 
to make the world's books discoverable online. 

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject 
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books 
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover. 

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the 
publisher to a library and finally to you. 

Usage guidelines 

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the 
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to 
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying. 

We also ask that you: 

+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for 
personal, non-commercial purposes. 

+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine 
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the 
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help. 

+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find 
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it. 

+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just 
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other 
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of 
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner 
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe.

BY James Clegg, at the Aldine Press- 
1904.

HARVARD COLLEGE LIBRARY 
INGRAHAM FUND 



This Volutne is the gift to the Register Society of 

William Asheton Tonge^ Staneclyffe^ Disley, 

and other members of his family. 



npHE present printed volume embraces the second, 
third, and fourth original volumes of the 
Middleton Registers. The particulars of these 
volumes are as follows: — 

1. Twenty-five leaves, i/in. by 8in., of stitched parch- 

ment unbound, embracing the years 1653-1661. 
This original volume was overlooked when the 
Register Society issued its former printed volume. 

2. Nineteen leaves of parchment, i8in. by 11 in., and 

twenty leaves of paper of the same dimensions. 
The parchment portion of this volume contains 
entries for the years 1664- 1689, and the paper 
portion contains interesting local entries and the 
marvellous collection of Briefs. The parchment 
and paper portions of this volume are bound to- 
gether in millboard. 

3. Ninety-nine leaves of parchment, I7in. by pin., dark 

millboard, half bound in leather, comprising the 
years 1695-1728. There is in the Parish Chest 
a beautifully written copy on paper, loosely fast- 
ened together, of a great portion of this volume. 

All the original volumes, which go to make 
up the present printed volume, are splendidly 
written with ink which is still jet black, and they 
are evidences of the great care with which they 
have been preserved. The only difficulty in 
transcription has been experienced in case of the 
parchment portion of the second volume. Here 



VI. 



the letters "Ba" (Baptism), or '*Bv" (Burial), have 
often been worn from the margin, but attention has 
been drawn to every one of these entries as to 
which any doubt exists. The Episcopal Tran- 
scripts at Chester have been searched, and every 
variation or addition has been noted. 

There is nothing to add by way of general 
Preface except to correct an obvious and unac- 
countable error in our Preface to the earlier printed 
volume. Middleton is, of course, North, not Soutk 
of Manchester. 

The thanks of the Society are due to Mrs. 
Henry Brierley for her careful General Index, and 
to our member, Dr. H odder, for his well-arranged 
Index of Briefs. Our member, Mr. Arrowsmith, 
has given invaluable help in proof reading, and 
Mr. Price, of the Chester Diocesan Registry has, 
as usual, been kindness itself. Canon Cleworth, 
the Rector of Middleton, has again shown us the 
greatest kindness and consideration. 

The main thing remains — to put on record 
the gratitude of our Society to our member 
Mr. W. Asheton Tonge, and the members of his 
family, who have so generously presented this 
volume to our Society, and enriched it with 
interesting engravings.

Where a name has yariants the Head-name baa been selected which now 
exiata or which most closely resembles the modem equivalent. All variants 
are separately Indexed with cross references to the Head-name. 

Where a Surname has an alias each form of the Surname is Indexed under 
its initial letter. 

The Christian names are, with some few exceptions, Indexed under their 
modem form—the first spelling of the name having generally been continued 
in connection with the same Surname. 

Illegitimate children are Indexed under the Surnames of both Mother and 
putative Father. 

<< N.X.N." siffliifies *< No Christian Name." 

An Asterisk loUowing a page number signifies that that combination of
